We have some great classes using specialty rulers by Deb Tucker designed to take
all the stress out of making classic blocks. Carol Ann took the LeMoyne Star
class using the Rapid Fire Lemoyne Star ruler and turned her class project into
a table runner and placemats for her sister’s birthday. Susan took the Hunter
Star class using the Rapid Fire Hunter’s Star ruler and plans to make a quilt
for her son with her blocks.

Hilda brought in this cute cowgirl quilt she made for her
girlfriend using the pattern “Kick’n Heels” from Thankfully Sew. We had a trunk
show that included this quilt during our shop hop, our theme was a Rodeo. Hilda
liked it and the rest is history!

Once upon a time...

Three ladies met at Quilt Guild. They started making small quilts as wall hangings. These "little quilts" became so popular and before the girls knew it, they were selling them. The three ladies were so busy making small quilts, in 1986, they decided to sell kits so people could make thier own "little quilts." Not too long after that, they started designing thier own patterns. What started out as a "hobby" turned into a "little" business of selling kits and patterns. The three ladies wanted to be able to offer more to thier customers so in 1998, Little Quilts opened in an old corn mill in Marietta... and the rest, as they say, is history.
